State of Ohio Board of Pharmacy Dispensary Districts
Overview
As one of three state agencies responsible for developing, implementing and overseeing the Ohio Medical Marijuana Control Program, the Board of Pharmacy is tasked with determining where medical marijuana dispensaries will be located. To assist in making this determination, the Board developed dispensary districts.
The dispensary districts were created after considering the following:
Established rules and regulations in other state medicalmarijuana programs
Patient populations
Consultation with regulators in other states
Ohio’s population
Existing compliance resources for the State Board of Pharmacy
Access to major Ohio roadways
The following pages include five maps. The first map depicts the entire state divided into the four quadrants that comprise the Board’s compliance regions. The maps on pages 3 through 6 break out the dispensary districts within each region and provide the maximum number of dispensaries in each district.
An initial draft of the dispensary districts was published for public comment from July 26, 2017 to August 11, 2017. As a result of evidence received during that period the maximum number of dispensary licenses available in Northeast District 5 was increased from 1 to 2 and the maximum number of dispensary licenses available in Northeast District 6 was decreased from 3 to 2.
